this was emailed to me recently. funny how little we truly progress in 2000 years.

"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." Cicero - 55 BC

My trip home was short lived. I am headed back to India for 2 months on Friday. See you in April.

"That finger was kind of in the way anyway."

- Scott Alan Dalrymple

When you have 20 acres of land to basically play in dirt, something is bound to happen eventually. My father got the tip of his finger smashed between his tractor roll bar and a tree the other weekend. He pulled back and ripped the tip of his left index finger off. He was wearing gloves, so when he pulled his hand out, all he saw was what looked like "smashed hamburger meat". The tip of his finger was found later inside his glove.

The picture above is the first I have seen of it, my mom told him he was very immature for creating a picture like this, and in response he said "So what Judy?!". Judy also told him that she didnt want him going to his 20 acres by himself anymore, he said that it is not that big of a deal, it was only the end of a finger and it was "kind of in the way anyway."

His one and only concern since this incident two weeks ago is typing.

these are the troubling times we live in:

After further review, and being gchat insulted by L, I realized there is something far more frightening than Williams and I's fratitude.

There is a snake in this picture. Look into his eyes. Creeping like a Tater Tot Medusa.

Clint Brown ESQ, 47, Global Financier

If ever a soul endlessly sought enlightenment and emasculation it was Clint Brown's. The renewable energy guru's body was discovered in a crevasse along Himalayan Mt. Everest. The eco-philanthropist/businessman had previously been on a visit to Tibet in an effort to jump start the country's renewable resources' production and allocation. His trek included Nepal, where the amateur mountaineer intended to summit Everest. Lost on the mountain, his body, 3 months later, was found naked, and frozen to his sherpa. He is left behind by his enormous fortune, ex-husband, widow, and 7 daughters.

Lee Mathew Portillo, 77, Doctor of Scientology

Lee Portillo died yesterday in a fatal car accident. While driving his vintage hatchback (that had no roof and no steering wheel) he was run over by a 2059 Hummer XXX. Police said the accident could have been avoided if Portillo wasn't on his "cell phone" which was simply a tin can on a string. Phone reports indicate Portillo was on a 6-way call with his mom, sister, cousin, brother-in-law, wife, and best friend attempting to coerce them all to meet that evening for one box of Tuna Helper®. He survived by his hot wife and nano-dog.
